Minestrone Soup
Minestrone Soup Video – scroll down for recipe It should come as no surprise to anyone familiar with this site that I-talian food ain’t exactly my specialty. Not to say I don’t like it — I mean what red-blooded American girl doesn’t like noodles and cheese and tomatoes and basil and whatever else Olive Garden orders…
Read MoreChicken Pot Pie
Bummer Alert. There’s actually not “pot” in chicken pot pie. So, you’re not going to get high on this… unless you mean high on deliciousness! Oh dear. Perhaps a Bad Joke Alert would have been in order, too. chicken pot pie video – scroll down for recipe I made this pot pie from scratch, all the way…
Read MoreQuesadillas
Don’t laugh. I know this is, like, Baby-Cooking 101 — whoa … not like that — but it’s very important to me that you not forget about quesadillas! They are a crucial part of my life and have been for many years. Second only to grilled cheese sandwiches (and on occasion, they have traded places)…

In my case, that was some black beans that became refried beans, some frozen chicken breast that became shredded…
Read MoreShrimp Corn Dogs
I wish I could take credit for this most excellent idea, but alas, I first heard of these from a restaurant in town called Moonshine Grill. It’s a great place and they make these amazing shrimp corn dogs that go really, really super-great with beer and cocktails. Already requests have begun coming in from viewers for…
Read MoreCherry Chipotle Sauce
It’s only been, like, a MILLION years since I posted any “bonus” recipes on here that aren’t affiliated with a video recipe and this one doesn’t even count for that because you’ll see it in tomorrow’s Shrimp Corndog episode as a dipping sauce. But cut me some slack, please! We have a lot of irons…
